I have a pretty easy life. I get to live in the USA, my husband has a job and makes a good living. We get to live in lots of different places... I am BLESSED!
So why do I get depressed? Why do I look at the negative? Why am I wired this way? Why do I love to eat so much I am struggling losing weight?
As I've been asking myself all of these questions. And I know, I just had a baby, I'm not sleeping, etc. etc. I will always have excuses. But what does GOD want me to do about it? If I have serious cravings for food, can I transfer that craving to God? (does that make sense) If he gave us all these emotions, and our temperaments, I am supposed to just suck it up, or find out how to use it, the good bad and ugly, without whining... argh, its so hard to explain what I am thinking!
Anyway, I am exercising, and I do like that. I just need to eat less...
Husband just called, he wants to go somewhere out tonight, and it involves ice cream. He said, "Honey I am here to plump you up" (in reference to the old SNL skit) And he made me laugh out loud!!!
anway, here is a picture of my wonderful children whom I adore... they do make me smile... and I HAVE to learn to put the picture in the right place... does it always go to the top when you insert them?
Yep, they always go to the top when you insert them. It's a pain, I know.
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful family, and a pretty fun one at that. I don't think it's all about sucking up whatever temperament God gave us. There are people who have depression, and thank God for anti-depressants! If you feel like you might have depression, I would suggest talking to your doctor. Don't feel like you have to suck it up just because you are a Christian. It doesn't always work out that way.
Oh, and go to http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com/ and find some cute background for your blog. I can't guarantee that it will make you want to blog more, though. ;)
You are real and I love that about you. God has a plan and a purpose for all he has you going through. I think I'm going to start calling you Meredith :)
